add info for activation of systems in GOsa

  
  To add a machine, use the GOsa² main menu, systems, add. You can use an IP address/hostname from the preconfigured address space 10.0.0.0/8. Currently there are only two predefined fixed addresses: 10.0.2.2 (tjener) and 10.0.0.1 (gateway). The addresses from 10.0.16.20 to 10.0.31.254 (roughly 10.0.16.0/20 or 4000 hosts) are reserved for DHCP and are assigned dynamically.
  
- To assign a host with the MAC address 52:54:00:12:34:10 a static IP address in GOsa² you have to enter the MAC address, the hostname and the IP; alternatively you might click the {{{Propose ip}}} button which will show the first free fixed address in 10.0.0.0/8, most probably something like 10.0.0.2 if you add the first machine this way. It may be better to first think about a suited range for your network.

With the exception of the main server all system will then have a matching icon. 
  
  If the machines have booted as thin clients/diskless workstations or have been installed using any of the networked profiles, the {{{sitesummary2ldapdhcp}}} script can be used to automatically add machines to GOsa². Please note, that the IP addresses shown after usage of {{{sitesummary2ldapdhcp}}} belong to the dynamic IP range. These systems can then be modified though to suite your network. A few screenshots show how this may be done.
